Black Library of Chaos

The '''Black Library''' is the [[Eldar]]'s repository for knowledge on the forces of [[Chaos]]. Much of the knowledge they had learned during their studies of the forces of Chaos was lost during the [[Fall of the Eldar]]. It is one of the most secure and secret places in the galaxy.
One, supposed, craftworld has survived untouched by alien influences. Deep within the Eldar webway, far beyond the reach of the [[Imperium]], is the Black Library of Chaos. Within are collected tomes, books and codices describing the Eldar studies of the [[warp]]. These objects describe the blandishments, influences, forms, creatures, perils, promises and horrors of the warp and the realm of Chaos. It is here that resides the terrible knowledge used by the Eldar to create what they hoped would be their master god who would finally overthrow the powers of Chaos. Due to the decadent and perverted nature of post-Fall Eldar society, the essence of the new god was poisoned and thus was born the fourth god of Chaos, the incarnation of the sins of the Eldar race: Slannesh. Such knowledge must be guarded at all costs.
The Black Library is enclosed within a vast, nearly impenetrable psychic barrier that even the guiding light of the [[Astronomican]] would be hard pressed to break through. It is tended by the guardian-scribes, who collate and transcribe the knowledge within the library, a task which they have carried out since the fall. They also maintain a watchful eye over their charges, for the books themselves contain such evil that they must be monitered at all times.
